A Message from Our Principal
Here at DCIS we are committed to fostering a culture of academic excellence, personal growth, and community partnership. We aim to inspire our students to reach their full potential, both inside and outside the classroom. Our dedicated teachers create dynamic and innovative learning experiences that challenge and inspire.
As we navigate the opportunities that each school year brings, communication and collaboration will be key. We encourage open dialogue between parents, teachers and students to create a supportive educational community. Together, we can ensure that each student receives the guidance and encouragement needed to succeed.
If you have any questions, concerns, or ideas you'd like to share, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Sincerely,
Sherri Verble
